Calédonie Fleet

Calédonie is the flag carrier of the French special collectivity of New Caledonia. Their branding incorporates the colors and emblem of the flag of New Caledonia. Calédonie is the sister company of Seychellen Air and is owned by the same parent company. The airline started operations in 1988 with an Embraer 120 Brasilia. They received a second in 1989 and expanded their presence. In 2004 the airline received its first Airbus A320 and Airbus A330. The A320 was configured with 8 Business Class Seats and 152 Economy Class seats used to fly to Australia and Fiji. The A330 was configured with 24 Business Class seats and 224 Economy class seats and flies to Kansai/Osaka, Beijing, Seoul, and Jakarta. In 2006 Calédonie replaced its Embraer 120s with two Embraer 135s, configured with 35 seats. In 2007 Calédonie received its second A320-200, configured with 8 Business Class Seats and 132 Economy Class Seats. In 2009 Calédonie became a part of Unitedwings and received a second A330-200, which flies to the Seychelles, Tokyo, and to Honolulu. The aircraft are named after provinces in New Caledonia. Paita, the first A320 delivered, was repainted in 2009. Both A320s received upgrades to Sharklets in 2016. Calédonie is planning on ordering the A330-800NEO and the A320NEO to replace the A330-200 and A320-200 respectively. All flight attendants are trained to speak French, Korean, English, Japanese, and Chinese in order to be available for every flight. The company employs 732 people in 13 countries.
A330 individual livery coming sometime soon!



    This is pretty good. I think the logo/flag placement on the tail is kind of awkward on the A330 and a little bit awkward on the A320, and the light blue Airbus titles (especially in lowercase in the "house font") don't fit, but its a good start.

     

    Side note: I'd hate to be a flight attendant for this airline if I'd have to learn 5 languages :P

    Cool!
    FIVE LANGUAGES!!! That pay had better be good. As for the livery, I'm really feeling it. It's very professional looking.

    The Airbus thing was my bad, I've been out of practice since I've been mostly Boeing for awhile so I'll fix that. The totem is very hard to place well on the tail so I tried to get a lot of it on and make it look decent and I hope that I was able to.

    This is nice. ^_^

    You'd think those Caledonian mechanics can place our alliance logos uniformly across the fleet ESP. since there's only like, six planes?

     

     

    Nope. :P
